Chapter 385
It seemed that he should really keep his jealousy in line and give her some space and freedom.
After Elliot left, Anastasia returned to Francis’ office to find Erica tugging their father’s sleeve. buttering up to him.
“Dad, I swear I can do what Anastasia can. Please let me work here!”
“No. Cut it out and go home now.”
“You’re so biased, Dad. Hmph! You don’t love me at all. All you care about is Anastasia,” Erica whined as she turned around in anger, only to find Anastasia approaching. At that, intense resentment flashed across her eyes.
Meanwhile, Francis coaxed Erica when he saw Anastasia. “Okay, okay, we’ll talk about this some other time.”
“Anastasia, has Young Master Presgrave left? A few clients will be coming in the afternoon. You should get to know them.”
Anger flashed across Erica’s eyes upon hearing her father’s words. Sure enough, Dad sees Anastasia as his only successor!

“Dad, introduce them to me too.”
“Why don’t you ask Alex to show you around first.” Galled, Francis tried to send his younger daughter away.
To be honest, why would Erica want anything to do with the company? She had long wanted to leave, for she had zero interest in things that challenged her brain.
“In that case, I’ll go and look for Mr. Hunter!” Erica now put her focus on seducing Alex.
As soon as Erica left, Francis turned to Anastasia. “Have you made up with Young Master Presgrave?”
Anastasia blushed right at that. She swore nothing could escape her father’s eyes.
“Actually, we can’t blame the Presgraves for this. What your mother did was out of instinct, and it has nothing to do with anyone. If she’s watching, she’d want you to be with Young Master Presgrave.”
“Why is that so?” Anastasia looked over to her father, confused.
“That’s because the Presgraves’ debt to your mother will have Young Master Presgrave treating you and Jared well for your whole lives. At the very least, he won’t let you down or have an issue with Jared.”
Thanks to her father’s words, the sadness and hesitation within Anastasia had alleviated. Riley had merely said those words to separate Elliot and her.
In that case, why should she trust a murderer?! The one who deserved to rot in hell was him!
“I get it, Dad.” Anastasia nodded.
“That’s good.” Just then, Francis’ phone rang. He picked up the call and said, “Alright, we’ll be there in five.”
“Anastasia, come and have lunch with me.”
With that, Anastasia follow her father to meet some of his important clients while Erica hung out in Alex’s office, having no intention of leaving.
